- You will receive a confirmation message indicating that your password has been successfully changed. Your password is now updated.
Troubleshooting: If you encounter issues while changing your password, ensure that your current password is entered correctly. If you forget your current password, use the "Forgot Password" feature to reset it. If the issue persists, contact our support team for assistance.
Two-Step Verification
To add an additional layer of security to your account, you can enable two-step verification. Also known as 2FA (Two-Factor Authentication).
This feature requires you to enter a 6-digit code that is generated in an authenticator app like Google Authenticator.
To set up two-step verification, follow these steps:
- From the "Manage Profile" modal, click on the "Enable 2FA" button.
- Scan the QR code with your authenticator app or enter the secret key manually (if your authenticator app doesn't support QR codes).
- Enter the 6-digit code generated by your authenticator app in the input field below the QR code.
- Click on the "Enable 2FA" button.
To disable two-step verification, follow these steps:
- From the "Manage Profile" modal, click on the "Disable 2FA" button.
- Confirm the action by clicking on the "Disable 2FA" button in the confirmation modal.
